Now that the fandom has exhausted the 'Rose Quartz is Pink Diamond' and 'What the heck is Bismuth/that gem in Lion's mane?', it's time for everyone to join the bandwagon and speculate about who/what Lion is and who Pearl belonged to. Hey, what are Steven Bombs for if not to cultivate new theories?

However, please do take a look at the video below, as it does actually add new and frankly interesting evidence as to what Lion might be. It's a new spin on the theory that I haven't seen before, so it's not quite the same old same old that a lot of theorists merely repeat.

Well, most people figured that Lapis and Jasper would come back in February, probably because that's when new episodes were expected. Unfortunately, we're still on hiatus with no new announced date for more episodes. :( Vote in the new poll on the side!

So far, Steven has been able to turn everybody that he believes in over to the good side. He believed that Centipeedle could be good, and even though she was misunderstood, in the end she turned out to have Steven's well being at heart. The Crystal Gems didn't even think to let Lapis Lazuli out of the mirror, and yet Steven took the time to get the message and free her. Peridot, loyal to Homeworld and a character fans couldn't be sure if she'd actually come around, has now proven herself to Steven and the other gems. Who's next? Jasper, perhaps? Read the recap from The Mary Sue for the episode 'Message Received', at the link below.

Description: Inspired by tumblr user Quettzal's adorable comic, First Snow. Peridot was spooked when her relationship with Pearl started to get a little more serious. Lapis wants her to quit hanging around and talk to Pearl. Pearl gifts the small gem with a new set of limb enhancers, and though ecstatic at first, Peridot questions Pearl's intentions.There's a ridiculous snowball fight, and at some point Pearl is trying to get to tell her first snow memory to Peridot, whose opinion about the white stuff isn't very high.A two part piece.
